This bill makes sweeping changes across Queensland's natural resources, land, water and energy laws. It streamlines exploration permit processes with 15-year caps and more flexible work programs, creates a new dispute resolution system for state land subleases, strengthens water compliance enforcement, and establishes CleanCo as a government clean energy company to boost electricity market competition.
Revenue and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2025
This bill implements 2025-26 State Budget measures and makes technical amendments across multiple areas. It extends financial support for first home buyers and employers of apprentices, creates backup tax mechanisms to protect foreign property surcharge revenue, clarifies penalty enforcement rules, validates an electricity authority transfer, and reforms how parliamentary Estimates hearings are chaired.
Energy Roadmap Amendment Bill 2025
This bill makes major changes to Queensland's energy policy by repealing legislated renewable energy targets and shifting to a 'market-driven' approach. It renames the Energy (Renewable Transformation and Jobs) Act to the Energy (Infrastructure Facilitation) Act, abolishes three statutory advisory bodies, changes public ownership rules, and creates a new framework for the CopperString transmission project connecting North and North West Queensland to the national grid.
